I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Colorado Addiction Counselor II (CACII) and work with individuals age 15 on up. I run therapy groups and work with couples. I specialize in treating substance abuse/addiction, depression, and anxiety. I also love working with individuals going thru life transition, examples include but are not limited too: entering college, break-up/divorce, career changes, arrival of a new baby, questioning life's meaning/purpose, illness/death. My approach blends both Western and Eastern Psychology; I have a strong foundation in mindfulness training and Dialectical Behavior Therapy both of which work to increase one's resilience and acceptance in the world while decreasing self-doubt and disconnection.

A Colorado native, Alicia earned her masters degree in counseling at Naropa University. While pursuing her degree, she worked as a preschool teacher. Being simultaneously immersed in the worlds of counseling and childhood development was an immensely fulfilling experience, leading Alicia to pursue Play Therapy, a modality that blends these lifelong interests. Alicia has clinical experience as a therapist at Mount Saint Vincent Home in Denver, a trauma-focused residential facility for children. In her extensive experience working with children and families, play has consistently proven to be an effective and natural method of communication, authentic expression, and healing.

As a psychotherapist with expertise in therapeutic applications of mindfulness, I can help you mobilize psychological and spiritual resources that promote deep healing and lasting change. I see individuals and couple for brief solution-focused work or ongoing insight-oriented psychotherapy.
